February 14, 2011 will include time with IBM's Watson.
The event is coined "Computer System vs. Quiz Show "
Basically, Jeopardy! - popular quiz show - that is known for the unique challenges it poses to its contestants based on puns, metaphors, and slang in questions.
Jeopardy! questions cover categories taken from Science, History, Pop Culture, Literature, Geography, The Oscars, Literary Characters, Word Origins, U.S. Presidents, Before & After, Rhyme Time, Stupid Answers, and Name's the Same.
Watson is suppose to represents the latest in a long line of groundbreaking innovations that will impact the way humans communicate with computers in the near future.
When the IBM computing system can actually understand the complexities of human communication (i.e. language, racism, capitalism, poverity, hate, crime, unemployment) and return a single, precise answer to a question or a solution to a challenge then humanity can celebrate, not just the IBMers getting the funds.
Share your unanswered questions via comments so IBMers can get inside voices sharing issues from the urban communites.
